    Golden time for rock memiors


    It isn't necessary to imagine the world ending in fire or ice. There are two other possibilities: one is paperwork, and the other is nostalgia.

    Looking forward to Neil's and Pete's books in particular (2 of my all time favorites). Hard to go wrong with the Allmans, Stones, Nash.

    Thanks for the link.

    I'd like to read some from the likes of Iggy Pop, David Bowie, Willie Nelson, Toni Iomi, Debbie Harry...and other lesser known personal shit-shows.

    You might like "Just Kids" by Patti Smith. It's in my queue but my wife says it's great. BP's article said it got a National Book Award.

    An excellent book about the punks, with a lot of good stuff on Iggy, is Please Kill Me, edited by Legs McNeil.
